Juvenile
Sex Offenses: A young client was charged with voyeurism for looking in a
neighbor's window. We obtained a psychological sexual deviancy
evaluation of him. His lack of sexual maturity and experience led the
psychologist to conclude that he was looking not for purposes of "sexual
gratification," as the crime requires, but out of mere curiosity. The
prosecution resolved the case with criminal trespass and diversion, with
no criminal record.

Juvenile Sex Offenses: An ll-year-old male client had sexual contact
with his younger sister. The children's father had recently died. The
family was in great emotional upheaval. We obtained a sexual deviancy
evaluation of the boy. He began counseling with a sex offender treatment
provider who specializes in children. We created a safety plan for the
children. The State agreed not to file a criminal charge.

Juvenile Sex Offenses: Parents retained me to advise them regarding
accusations that their son molested their younger daughter. I helped
them establish an appropriate safety plan to keep the daughter safe.
When CPS responded to investigate, it approved of the safety plan we had
in place and did not require a dependency action.
